Explode

sometimes
i explode
with tears,
fold the towels,
drain...
little by little
drip by drip
my confusion
dissolves...

i'm outside
the window, the mirror
the blind
someone ought to know
someone should know
pocketed
sealed
my heart
blows and blows and blows

aftermath
of all those negative
reductionist thoughts that cut
everyone and everything
down to size
it's so concise
so broken,
so awesomely
disgusting,
afternoons
afternoons
mid-afternoons.
